[TriLUG] AMD64 vs. P4 & Linux

[Hugh Crissman]

Recently I have been doing some hardware shopping. I have been looking
at the AMD 64 bit processor and P4 processors. Does anyone have any
experience running linux on the AMD64? What is the performance like? How
do you think it compares to the P4? All the benchmarks I have found are
windows OS comparisons. Thanks for any input anyone might have.
